A round of applause to Mattel they deserve it??? bwa ha ha NO THEY DON’T!
no answer about why Volcana was not shown! No answer on the leaked Firefly or the Doctor Destiny except to say they do not wxist at this time and will not exist untill we say so and reveal them and you see them in a Target store. so in other words if we don’t tell you it’s official and it’s coming in a singlr or a 3 pack you can forget about it! so no I will not give Mattel a round of applause.

i agree with casimir. 7 new 3 packs from now till dec with pegs overflowing with older packs spells disaster for me. Singles also clogging the retail channel in my area. I guess we can hope for the best.

This was the one panel I attended – mostly because the others were insane-o lineups, but what a great surprise. So many great figures, I salute Mattel for giving the fans what they want!

and yes, I asked about Dr. Midnite, but all he could say was ‘it’s possible’.

i love lots of the new figures. great to see JLI and JSA getting love. but can we please get a gypsy figure some day. she’s about the only “real” JLA member that hasn’t been done in JLU format

First Chip, then your blog. Great stuff! This truly is a great day for JLU. But, I have to bring up the lack of Volcana! It ‘burns’ me up…har de har har.

Soon. I think we will let folks digest what Mattel has shown for a bit first.

So long as these actually make it to retailers or e-tailers…. Then I’ll whole-heartedly agree with your sentiment, SF.

The only thing about JLU is the nagging hole that is Volcana. It’s the only figure missing that sticks my collection in the past and doesn’t allow me to move forward. I wish Mattel would just step up and make this figure available so that I (and many others) could finally be caught up…
Ohter then that, they have my money if I can find them.
